Terms of Service

Last updated October 8, 2026

These terms cover your use of the paywarden.io website and the PayWarden software. By using either, you agree to them.

What PayWarden is

PayWarden is software that you install and run on your own infrastructure to accept USDT payments on the TRON network. It is not a bank, payment processor, money transmitter, exchange or custodian.

• In the self-hosted edition, payments go directly to blockchain addresses derived from your own wallet. We never receive, hold, transmit or have access to your funds or keys.
• A hosted Cloud edition is in development and is not offered today. Its architecture is not yet non-custodial. Nothing on this site is an offer of a hosted service.

License

The software is licensed under the Business Source License 1.1. Your use of the software is governed by that license, which is included with it. If these terms and the license conflict on how you may use the software, the license prevails.

Your responsibilities

• You operate the software, and you are solely responsible for your deployment.
• You are responsible for keeping your seed phrase, encryption keys and backups safe. We cannot recover lost keys or funds.
• You are responsible for complying with the laws that apply to your business, including tax, consumer protection, sanctions and anti-money-laundering rules in your jurisdiction.
• You must not use PayWarden for any unlawful purpose.

No warranty

The website and software are provided “as is”, without warranties of any kind, express or implied. Blockchain networks, third-party APIs and wallets are outside our control and may fail, be delayed or change.

Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any indirect, incidental or consequential damages, or for any loss of funds, data, revenue or profits arising from your use of the website or software.

Changes

We may update these terms. The date at the top shows the latest version. Continued use after a change means you accept the updated terms.
